Sujet: Hard deadline or trade Marner and contend this year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gregb569</b></div><div>Like I just think that there's a 0% chance of that happening.
For starters; Hall &gt; Marner and Vatanen &gt; Ceci

Secondly, he said sign Marner to Matthews money, then trade him and extend Hall for JT money (600k in the difference) Might as well just sign Marner to either of those contracts or whatever he gets instead.
They can give Marner 10m and they'll be fine</div></div>

Yeah but that depends on whether you believe Marner is worth AM money. Obviously some of us don't believe that but there's plenty of people here that do.

In this scenario Marner gets his money just not in Toronto. Some people come into Leafs ACGM's complaining about the talented young Marner not getting AM money...well here is a scenario in which he gets it. If Marner is as talented as people seem to believe then why not this kind of trade.

Sujet: Take this or sign in Europe
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jamiepo</b></div><div>I see what you are saying but I disagree. This may or may not be an issue for the PA. I tend to agree with you that it is. But it is also an issue for owners. One of the lesser reasons for the salary cap was caused by players who hadn’t ever played an nhl games making ridiculous demands. The elc and rfa system is in place to help teams develop and sign their prospects. Ufa players are asking for moon and so are rfa. Only enough of the pie to go around. I think the owners will want a solution to rfa contracts and hold out as much or even more than the PA</div></div>

The owners may want a solution to the RFA contracts but at the end of the day they have their 50% and while it would be nice for the owners to have some thing figured out, they will eventually just say to the PA "this is a you issue, figure it out".

Not sure goes further than that as it pertains to owners.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Captain_Koivu_</b></div><div>This is b.s that these young players are not getting signed. Almost all of them are top players on there teams and should be paid that way.
This is just looking bad on the NHL. A lock out or hold out is coming.</div></div>

This is a NHLPA issue and not an owners issue. The revenues are at 50-50 and that's not changing. What the NHLPA has to decide especially for the next CBA is how to distribute their share of the pie.

It's hard to believe the older PA members are going to just be okay taking less money. The younger members don't have the same standing within the PA as that is gained over time and with very little rights...not sure how younger players will get a bigger share of the pie.

I think you need to give your head a shake at your comment you made which borders on total incompetece. Alot of elite NHL players were elite junior hockey players before they became elite NHL players. Do me a personal favour and google Mitch Marner awards won in last year of junior hockey for the London Knights and name be one NHL player including Connor McDavid who ever won as many awards in a season as Mitch Marner, the Magician. I am expecting an apology from you tognight.</div></div>

I agree with very little of what <a href="/users/littlejerryseinfeld" target="_blank">@littlejerryseinfeld</a> says mostly but damn....the most absurd idea.
Just cause a young player plays C a few times in junior doesn't mean he can in the best league in the world.

SMH...

Sujet: Projecting the Salaries of RFA Forwards
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dad</b></div><div>The team comparable for me is usually an indicator of how the front office likes doing things (ie term on a contract, bonuses, etc). If you look at most teams players who have similar roles have similar salaries. It's not as accurate as a direct comparable but it is important to take into account.</div></div>

I still feel league comparables is how contracts are decided upon.
With this RFA class being as talented as it is, the NHLPA is going to have to make an educated decision on how the 50% pie gets split up. The owners won't care how the pie is split up...they only care of the 50-50 side of things.

<a href="/users/palhal" target="_blank">@palhal</a> brought this up a day ago and mentioned that every player gets a vote and so it's unlikely that the older PA members would allow to be thrown under the proverbial bus financially.

Sujet: with Manson and Hamonic
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div><a href="/users/Trickster" target="_blank">@Trickster</a> <a href="/users/BurgerBoss" target="_blank">@BurgerBoss</a> <a href="/users/oneX" target="_blank">@oneX</a>

Perhaps a hypothetical would help here.

Suppose Anaheim had a fourth defenseman -- a very good RhD. Let's call him Carlo Pulock. Now the Ducks have a choice of protecting three of these four defensemen. If the choice is between Fowler and Manson, I think they keep Fowler unless they can make a favorable trade for him.</div></div>

Okay I have a question regarding your scenario: Fowler turning 30 and still has big money left on the deal.
Quick solution for the Ducks to get out of said contract: trade him? Or expose in the draft?

Got to factor in his age and that D do not generally get better with age.

Btw very interesting discussion guys gj!
